We are pleased to announce that Pierre Haritz (TU Dortmund), Helena Kotthaus (ML2R), Thomas Liebig (SFB 876 - B4) and Lukas Pfahler (SFB 876 - A1) have received the "Best Paper Award" for the paper "Self-Supervised Source Code Annotation from Related Research Papers" at the IEEE ICDM PhD Forum 2021.

To increase the understanding and reusability of third-party source code, the paper proposes a prototype tool based on BERT models. The underlying neural network learns common structures between scientific publications and their implementations based on variables occurring in the text and source code, and will be used to annotate scientific code with information from the respective publication.
